A temperate climate and unsurpassed scenic beauty from the Crystal Coast to Grandfather Mountain makes North Carolina one of the most popular states in which to live. North Carolina’s population growth rate is one of the highest in the nation and this means more businesses, many of whom opt for the limited liability protection offered by North Carolina corporations and LLC’s.
While large businesses, operating in several states, might choose to incorporate in a state they consider friendlier to business, it may still be best for those doing business primarily in North Carolina to make North Carolina their home state.
